Collective nouns often give me a bit of a giggle.. Who thinks of these anyway??

A book of owls, a murder of crows, a business of ferrets etc..

What about photographers?? A chimp of photographers maybe?? I remember giving a workshop on studio lighting at the local camera club meeting some years ago.. I had a couple of semi clad models posing and photographers were clambering to get their shots.. I announced we had an orgy of photographers.

Think of a few and post them..

I see this going down a very twisted, bizarre path. Now, where's the popcorn?
